Newest Industry

Last night I built a new dedicated database server for my applications. Up until this morning, the databases resided on the same machine as the Web server.

The new DB server has less RAM than the Webserver, but has much faster SCSI drives, with plural being the operative word. Data lives on one physical device, and apps on another. The Web server currently only has one physical drive, which meant lots of thrashing on large queries.

If you experience any weirdness, let me know.
